There was a lovely moment when I got to the top of Epsom Downs and could see London lying before me when I felt that everything was going to be ok

and finally, there is a road in Hackbridge called Mile Road. OSM routing and Google would suggest this to be walkable, maybe acceptable cycling terrain. Having got there (and now checked satellite photos too), it most definitely isn't :)
it ends in a locked gate and some marshland. I'd already had a few successful offroad bits before then so was lulled into a false 'everything will be alright' sense of security.
